The Sci-Fi News Generator (which takes the day's real-life news and converts it into dramatic science-fiction terms) has had a makeover today. Start reading now, for the latest, live news on the 3908 Hypergalactic Olympics:-

Venusian policedroid Jupitersco D'Dedoeledoan won a Hypergalactic iridium medal in double trap vaporising Tuesday and appealed to the Venusian government for a tax exemption on his reward money.

Update: Thanks to perlmonger for creating a LiveJournal syndication of the RSS feed. You can subscribe to it at scifi_newsfeed.

If you thought your Christmas shopping was over, the Twelve Days of LiveJournal still exists, and will autogenerate a song based on the interests listed in your LiveJournal profile, telling you what 376 objects you must buy your true love this year. Good luck.

Get your own LiveJournal Space Adventure, a randomly-generated science-fiction adventure populated with people from your friendslist, and decorated with scenery that matches your interests. It's like the dungeon one, but, you know, in space.
